Remember the Golden Rule? Do unto others as they would do unto you. Dallas faith and government leaders want North Texans to live out the rule and have united for a #BeGolden campaign to remind people to be nice to each other, and in particular to be kind to refugees who are the most vulnerable.

The year-long campaign is spearheaded by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas, but is an ecumenical venture comprised of leaders from a variety of religions, including Episcopal Diocese of Dallas Bishop George Sumner.  

The goal is to bring awareness to the plight of refugees in North Texas and to show grace to all people, including those who differ politically, ethnically, racially, and socio-economically.

At 9:30 a.m., April 10, Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas Bishop Edward Burns and Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings will discuss #BeGolden at the Dallas Festival of Ideas in the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library in downtown Dallas. And on the following Monday night, April 9, leaders will light the Dallas skyline gold in honor of the campaign.
